Add the JitPack repository to your build file:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

Add the dependency:

dependencies {
    implementation 'io.github.tonnyl:charles:x.y.z'
}

ProGuard

If you use Glide as your image engine, add rules as Glide's README says. And add extra rule:

-dontwarn com.squareup.picasso.**

If you use Picasso as your image engine, add rules as Picasso's README says. And add extra rule:

-dontwarn com.bumptech.glide.**

Attention: The above progurad rules are correct.

Usage

Permission

The library requires two permissions:

android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

So if you are targeting Android 6.0+, you need to handle runtime permission request before next step.

Simple Usage Snippet

Start CharlesActivity from current Activity or Fragment:

Charles.from(this@MainActivity)
        .choose()
        .maxSelectable(9)
        .progressRate(true)
        .theme(R.style.Charles)
        .imageEngine(GlideEngine())
        .restrictOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_UNSPECIFIED)
        .forResult(REQUEST_CODE_CHOOSE)

Themes

There are two built-in themes you can use to start CharlesActivity:

R.style.Charles (light mode)
R.style.CharlesDark (dark mode)

And Also you can define your own theme as you wish.

Receive Result

In onActivityResult() callback of the starting Activity or Fragment:

override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
    if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_CHOOSE && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
        val uris = Charles.obtainResult(data)
        val paths = Charles.obtainPathResult(data)

        Log.d("charles", "uris: $uris")
        Log.d("charles", "paths: $paths")
    }
}
